.LA2024 announced the additional venues Thursday, emphasizing its use
of existing venues to avoid costly construction and cost overruns that
have plagued Olympic host cities in recent years.Long Beachs arena,
convention center, waterfront and pier would comprise one of four main
sports clusters scattered around the Los Angeles area as opposed to
having a single Olympic Park. The city joins the other clusters of
downtown Los Angeles, the South Bay near Torrance and the San Fernando
Valley.The LA2024 bid committee said each cluster will be located within
a secure perimeter where fans can walk between venues with food, music
and celebration sites. The clusters are connected to the regions public
transit system.The venue changes will be included in LA2024s second bid
file that is due to the International Olympic Committee on Oct. 7. The
IOC will select the 2024 host city in September 2017. Los Angeles is
competing with Paris, Rome and Budapest, Hungary.Rome Mayor Virginia
Raggi on Wednesday rejected her citys bid, although her motion to
withdraw the bid would have to be approved by Romes city
assembly.Handball would be held in Long Beachs 13,500-seat arena, which
recently underwent $10 million in upgrades, along with warm-up
facilities at the connected convention center. BMX and water polo would
be held in temporary facilities along the citys waterfront, where
open-water swimming and triathlon would be held. Sailing would be near
the citys Belmont Pier.Long Beachs venues are located 24 miles south of
downtown Los Angeles. The athletes village would be on the UCLA campus
on Los Angeles west side.Honda Center in Anaheim would host indoor
volleyball, bringing the Olympics to Orange County, with the 18,000-seat
venue that is home to the NHLs Anaheim Ducks located about 26 miles
from Los Angeles. It would be about an hour drive from the athletes
village.In LA2024s original plans, volleyball was to be played at UCLAs
Pauley Pavilion. Instead, that 13,800-seat basketball arena would host
wrestling and judo.Historic Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles would
host mens and womens golf. The course has hosted the U.S. Open, two PGA
Championships and the annual PGA tournament since it opened in
1929.Adding sites in Long Beach and Anaheim would bring the Olympics
closer to the large populations in Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino
counties.LA2024 said UCLAs tennis center and north athletic field have
been added to the track and field stadium as part of the training center
located at the athletes village in an effort to reduce additional
travel for competitors.Were very pleased to add more world-class
existing venues to our fiscally responsible and innovative Games Plan
for 2024, LA2024 chairman Casey Wasserman said. By relying on Southern
Californias wealth of top sports, housing and transportation
infrastructure, LA 2024 will minimize construction risk, operational
struggles and costs, and can focus on providing athletes with the
perfect stage to perform their best, without distraction.
